About the timezones, a.t.m, you cannot set timezones using openchangeclient. And, what is displayed here is just a label (same in Outlook). Internally, Exchange uses a different property altogether - to identify timezone information. (Setting this property is quite a task, since its no ID or a string-index, but a binary blob with some weird structures within). This [1] is a pretty old list of values for the same. I know that they altered/added a couple more with Vista/Exchange 2007. > And after some digging around stumbled on.... > > http://www.eggheadcafe.com/aspnet_answers/Exchange2000development/Aug2006/post27584610.asp > > An extra dt int parameter. Ponder if this parameter needs to be sent? I'm not too sure about this. For WebDAV, this parameter is probably required (/me remembers reading about CDO instance types for handling recurring appointments/tasks). For MAPI though, handling recurring appointments/tasks is by using another binary blob. More here [2]. Bottomline: pure MAPI may not use this property. > Cheers!, > Gary HTH -Suman [1] http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms912053.aspx [2] http://www.geocities.com/cainrandom/dev/MAPIRecurrence.html _______________________________________________ devel mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.openchange.org/listinfo/devel
